    Please stagger the Hamlet Defense timers

    There should always be a battle phase in progress in one of them (and that's possible with a 50/25 hour timer). It sucks having content you can't plan to do because of the weird timers with longer non-battle than battle periods.

    (I haven't checked all three yet but neither of the new ones appear to be in the battle phase atm)

    Dear rude person,

    please don't be rude

    Love,

    A nice guy

    There were also no groups seeming to be forming, so it gave me the impresson none of them were ready.

    It would help a #*^&$(ing ton if there was a goddanged NPC in each city that told you the status.

    Ya it kind of makes no sense, lol apparantly if you don't supply a Hamlet said Hamlet won't get attacked, <_< so by supplying the Hamlet you are instigating the fight... basically by supplying the area we are causing the war! Cause ya I thought the same thing when I saw that Ulda wasn't in battle phase I thought it was in supply phase. But it was in "battle phase" but no battle was going on since supply rating was 0.

    This is what your hamlet looks like at 0 supply.

    lol wow even Hamlet in ULDAH?!!?! was at supply 0, but that might of been because it was released IN battle phase, so was impossible to supply haha.

    But yeh they're all seperated.

    Yep. If you inquire with the NPCs, they do say that the extra supply to the hamlets draws attention to the hamlet causing a bigger retaliation. So that seems to be the intended mechanic. I feel like if we want to create an optimal hamlet environment, we shouldn't overstock during the supply phase. This event really does need good GC communication.
